Rotarod performance of OVX and sham mice. OVX mice (n = 10) stayed on the rotarod for a significantly shorter time when compared with age-matched sham controls (n = 9). Mice were tested on the rotarod at 5–20 rpm over 3 min for three trials per day for five consecutive days. The time on the rod of three trials was averaged for each day in each group, and each day’s average was compared independently between the two groups
